Step 1: Consultation and Diagnosis
Your journey to healthier nails begins with a consultation at Walk Without Pain Podiatry Clinics. During your initial visit, our podiatrist in Brisbane will conduct a thorough examination of your toenails to confirm the presence and extent of the fungal infection. This may include a physical inspection and, in some cases, additional tests to identify the specific fungus involved.
Step 2: Preparation
Once diagnosed, the next step is preparing your toenails for the laser treatment. This includes cleaning the affected area to remove any debris and trimming your nails to ensure the laser can effectively reach the fungal spores. The podiatrist will also discuss the treatment plan and answer any questions you may have.
Step 3: Laser Treatment
The actual laser treatment is a swift and straightforward procedure. You will be comfortably seated, and the podiatrist will use a handheld laser device to target your infected nails. The laser emits light energy that penetrates the nail and nail bed, specifically targeting and destroying the fungal pathogens without damaging the surrounding tissues.
Step 4: Post-Treatment Care
After the laser treatment, your podiatrist will guide you on essential post-treatment care. This includes maintaining proper foot hygiene, using antifungal products, and adopting habits to prevent fungus recurrence. There is no downtime required, so you can resume your regular activities immediately after the session.
Step 5: Follow-Up
To ensure optimal results and monitor the progress, follow-up appointments will be scheduled. Your podiatrist will assess the healing process and may recommend additional treatments if necessary. Typically, patients require 1-3 sessions, based on the infection’s severity.

How long does fungal toenail laser treatment take to work ?
Whilst the fungi are killed very efficiently at the time of the procedure, the damaged nail cannot repair itself. New nail will need to grow up from the base and push the damaged nail out, This is then trimmed off as it grows. This means that the nail will not be cosmetically different immediately after the treatment, but will clear as it grows.
